IX APPRECIATION

Remembrance of things past at Maryland State College begins with the
vital, living present, for who we are nationwide is symbolized by a man
keeping alive a tradition that has traveled the length and breadth of the land.

A great metropolitan newspaper of our state hails him as "The Win-
ningest Coach"; a governor praises the accomplished skill of players this man
has coached to professional brilliance; the owner of one of the most out-
standing professional football teams in the country says that the McCain-
coached player always stands head and shoulders above the rank and file.

To the man who has brought national renown to our college; who
has planted in the hearts of ten proud teams the will to fight hard, to win
and lose with grace on their road to championships; who, amidst honors
and plaudits and victories, has practiced the ideals of service, simplicity, and
humility so faithfully that every student at Maryland State College is inspired
to emulation, the students of Maryland State College dedicate The Hawk,
1960:

Vernon E. "Skip" McCain

One of the Winningest Grid Coaches
in the Entire U.S.

Sun Salute

In twelve years McCain's teams
have sustained 83 wins, 12 losses,
and 4 ties. He produced untied
and undefeated teams in 1949,
1950, 1951, and 1955.

In 1954, Maryland State joined
the Central Intercollegiate Ath-
letic Association; in 1955 McCain
led his team to the championship.
Since 1954 the Hawks have par-
ticipated in r^rvo bowl games, both
in Miami.

McCain brought two scintillat-
ing AU-Americans to his coaching
staff. Nay Taylor of Tennessee
State and Earl Banks of Iowa
(now Head Coach at Morgan
State ) . He sent Vaughn to the
Canadian Pros, Sample and Plun-
kett to the World Champion
Colts, Brown to the Detroit Lions,
and Stan Jones to the American
Football League.

In his twelve years "Skip" has
produced nine All-Americans —
Sylvester Polk, Calvin Martin,
Walter Robinson, William Jor-
dan, Leon Wilson, Sherman Plun-
kett, John Sample, Roger Brown
and Vernon Vaughn.

We salute our
coach."

THE PRESIDENT OF MARYLAND STATE COLLEGE:
DR. JOHN TAYLOR WILLIAMS

Seventy years of existence and ten years of phenomenal growth were
celebrated by Maryland State College in 1957, the tenth year of the able,
dynamic administration of Dr. Williams, who has seen us grow in numbers
and facilities, his task widening with the expansion of the College. Scholastic
emphases, athletic emphases, a growing national reputation, the need for
further expansion: These are institutional topics our President ponders as
he asks: "Who are we of Maryland State College?"

THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND:
THE HONORABLE J. MILLARD LAWES

Our College was honored by a visit from Maryland's First Citizen,
Governor J. Millard Tawes, on December 5, 1959, the occasion being our
First Annual Leadership Convocation. A notable gathering of Maryland
citizens heard the Governor speak in tribute to our student leaders.

Foreword

Table of Contents

Who are the men and women, students and
teachers, of Maryland State College? What have we
done? What do we cherish? What are our interests?
How do we look to ourselves? What has been our
history since the last time we recorded it in the
pages of a year book?

The Hawk staff invites you to learn through
the media of picture and story what we have done
this year. We are, as you will discover, a closely knit
community of students and teachers, going about our
daily tasks, studying, teaching, creating, working, wor-
shipping, dreaming, relaxing, aspiring; in short, do-
ing all those things that deepen into custom and tra-
dition on every college campus in the land.

"History repeats itself," is a very old saying.
What justification exists for presenting a history
which is a repetition of a twice-told tale? The main
reason for this record of our life, so the editors be-
lieve, is that while the setting may remain the same,
the persons taking their places in the historical drama
change and grow. It is for the individual member
of each class, organization, and team that his par-
ticular moment of Maryland State College history
should be preserved; he is a person; he has an identity.
In the hope that this edition of The Hawk shall
speak personally to every member of the Maryland
State College community, the editors present it to
our family.

Dr. James D Singletary

Dean of the College is Dr. James D. Singletary, scholarly disciple of the real, not the popularized John Dewey. Hard-working
Dean Singletary has impressed his mark of identity upon faculty and students who share his enthusiasm for good work, high
standards, and professional growth.

Miss Edith I. Gibbs

Mr. Francis H. Harris

Dean Edir.h I. Gibbs, monarch of the co-ed country
bound not by Murphy Hall but the breadth and
width of our college life, helps women students
find their identity by wise counsel. "Women's I>ay,"
"Candlelight Service," and other traditions and use-
ful organizations taken for granted now had their
origin and growth in Dean Gibbs' mind and heart.

The Good Dean! How well the title fits our calm, courteous
Dean Francis H. Harris. Student Council Qirnivai, Student
Counselors, Y.M.C.A., movies, Pre-Design-for-Living Days —
all originated and vitalized by our unassuming Dean of Men
to make our lives fuller and happier.

Some of us are fleet-footed and grow skilled in track activities; some endowed
with physical strength, superb body co-ordination, and acute minds, play foot-
ball to match intricate play with intricate play; some learn to do all that can
be done with a baseball and a bat . . . Some like music and collect records and
sing in the choir and play in the bands . . . Some join fraternities and sororities
and find our identity in association with like-minded fraters and sorors . . .

THE STUDENT COUNCIL Seated (1. to r.): Carter, Alexander, Parker (President), James, Crosse. Standing (1. to r.) : Gould, Burton, Cooper
(Vice President), Robinson, Muse.

A busy Student Council, equally busy Student
Counselors' body, Men's Senate, and Women's Coun-
cil have integrated our corporate living this year un-
der the guidance of Dean Gibbs and Dean Harris.
Items to note as the year went by were the new
spacious look of a well furnished Student Council
office; the quiet, confident leadership of L. Parker;
the very popular choice by women students of B.
Jenkins, Women's Council President, as Woman of
the Year; an enthusiastic, well supported Homecoming
celebration; the neater look of dormitory rooms; the
serious consideration of ways to improve use of leisure
and maximum use of present recreation facilities; the
growing effectiveness of the Counselor-Freshman
Counselee relationship. (A department head called
Dean Harris to tell him that a freshman's counselor
had dropped in to spend five minutes talking about
one of "his" freshmen, left an hour later with out-
lines, notes, and other helps to improve the perform-
ance of the counselee in a difficult course! ) The
Hawk salutes student government for a year's work
well done.

THE G. E. HAYES STUDENT LOAN FUND COMMITTEE L. to R.: Adviser V. W. Stone, T. Kilgore, Wiggins, J. Tolson, Bowen. Crosse.

Since its highly successful beginning as a five-
figured loan fund under the sure guidance of Presi-
dent Williams, the G. E. C. Hayes Loan Fund has
operated efficiently and humanely to the benefit of
many students who, without its helping hand, would
have faltered and perhaps have failed to complete
their year's work. Staffed entirely by students, the
Committee, with Adviser V. W. Stone, continues to
render an invaluable service.

Also in areas of organizations whose members
have had the ideal of service is our Veterans Club;
men and women who answered their country's call
to arms, served it faithfully, and now take up their
own educational pursits.

Wilbur Ross, Track Coach

Upon his arrival last Sep-

Ross began making a lot of
noise about his excellent pros-
pects. Everyone thought it was
impossible for him to live up
to such a rosy picture. But after

the meet at the All-Eastern In-
door Event, skeptics suddenly
found that Ross and his speedy
Hawks meant business. Since
then they have been gradually
elbowing their way into track
recognition.

CLASSROOM SCENES

Air Force

A decade ago, MSC campus took on a new look
with the incorporation of the AFROTC program into
the general curriculum. Since then Corps cadets have
engaged in many activities in the local area while par-
ticipating in the two-fold program objectives: to pre-
pare cadets for future service as officers in the Air
Force and to build citizens.

Developments and changes have been aimed at
improving overall program. Cadet staff personnel have
been rotated regularly, new concepts introduced, and
improved methods of instruction incorporated.

AFROTC staff consists of Associate Professor of
Air Science Major Louis W. Cracken, Assistant Pro-
fessor of Air Science Captain Bradley R. Foster, and
fu'o administrative non-commissioned officers, Staff
Sergeants Donald E. Blevins and Frederick J. Smith.

ROTC

Cadets have many extra-curricular activities to en-
hance their development. Membership in the AF-
ROTC Band, the Arnold Air Society, the Cadet Drill
Team, the Cadet Glee Club, and opportunity to go
on orientation flights in aircraft are just some activities
cadets can participate in and enjoy.

The Angel Flight, believed to be the largest of its
kind in the U.S., has contributed to the Corps by
promoting interest in it, aiding in social activities, serv-
ing as hostesses, and marching as a separate unit or
jointly with the Cadet Drill Team.

Stellar attraction of the year is Military Day, with
Military Ball ceremonies, consisting of drill and band
contests, displays, awards, and visiting dignitaries,
followed by a formal Cadet Ball — all helping to make
this day a momentous occasion.

At Home In 1959

Homecoming might well begin with a sudden
glimpse of a favorite campus spot — the moon-drenched
tree under which a fellow first discovered the beauty
of that special girl's face. It might begin with the re-
membered musical ting of a chain beating against the
flag pole. It often begins — that sense of being home
again — with familiar sights and sounds: late fall leaves

making vivid splashes against the dull gray of a dusty
football field, the pink and green, black and gold and
purple of floats, shouts of welcome, football cleats
hitting the pavement hard, the band tuning up, the
swish of a majorette's brief skirt, the color and rhythm
of the parade. However it begins. Homecoming is
always gay, exciting, colorful, nostalgic . . .

School of Gracious Living-School of The Dance

The glowing sophistication of the Paris-trained model,
the enthusiastic participation of men and women students in
an all-college fashion show, the tender grace of dancing tots:
these are the memories we share of the Lois Towles School
of Gracious Living and the Judimar School of the Dance.
Both are cherished additions to our way of life, both con-
tributing to poise and confidence through stresss on usage.

black fur which she calls "Jet." Model Enez Bowins is as-

The Governor And The Student Leaders

December 4, 1959, was the day President Williams
set aside to honor students who have distinguished
themselves as campus leaders. To emphasize the im-
portance he attached to our first Leadership Convo-
cation, President Williams invited Maryland's First
Citizen, the Honorable J. Millard Tawes, Governor,
to address an assemblage of the honored leaders,
prominent Marylanders from government, business,
the professions, and other fields of accomplishment,
parents and patrons of the College.

Briefly but eloquently. Governor Tawes, a man of
enormous charm, warm friendliness and dignity, an
obvious leader of men, spoke about the path one takes
to leadership, of its responsibilities and privileges, of
the sacrificial role of parents who make leadership
convocations possible. Then Student Council President
Levon Parker presented the Governor a plaque from
the student body. The Governor lunched with the
College family, visited Art Gallery with President Wil-
liams, posed for photograph with student leaders.

In 1959 they brought us their messages.

As The Hawk Flies Nestward. . .

Preparing the I960 HAWK was an exciting task made enjoyable by congenial fellowship of a co-operative staff that
occasionally worked all night, wheeled across Bay Bridge rushing copy to publisher while worrying about exams and reports,
sighed for office space, longed to finish job at right time — early enough for everyone to receive book before term ended but late
enough to avoid vociferous criticism of our brain child.

For relief from harassing problems, HAWK spread his wings one day, everybody perched on, and ye editors flew to Balti-
more with some interesting photographic results. We missed Business Manager Yates sorely, wish him a speedy recovery. Also
unavailable for the photographer were Associate Editor Gould, Art Editor Satchell, Photographers Wickes and Wiggins. We now
impress ourselves for posterity as follows:

Editor Cat Davidson, Business Manager Sammy Quails try to per-
suade Hawk that right time to sink his talons into this particular
situation is football season.

Business Manager Quails concludes a delectable bit ot business:

The Editors close the pages of THE HAWK with
a beginning rather than an ending, a salutatory rather
than a valedictory, for who we are is most clearly

shown by what we become and do in the world after
we leave the sheltering arms of our Alma Mater.
